Verse
A D
Surrender into the night
A D
Silently take my hand
E D A
Nobody knows whats inside us
D E
Nobody under-stands
A D
They handed us down a dream
A D
To live in this lonely town
E D A
But nobody hears the music
D E
Only the echo of a hollow sound
Chorus
E D A E
Where do the child-ren go
D A D E
Between the bright night and darkest day
D A E
Where do the child-ren go
D A E A
And who's that deadly piper that leads them away
Verse 2 (same as verse 1)
Together we make our way
Passengers on a train
Whisper a secret forever
Promises in the rain
We're leaving it all behind
While castles are falling down
We're going where no one can find us
And if there's a heaven we'll find it somehow
Melodica Solo (roughly transcribed for guitar)
